Тәжірибелік нұсқаулар және стиль

This video will show you how to replace the spark plugs and upper intake gaskets on the 3.6L Pentastar engine Jeep Grand Cherokee vehicles. This was done on a 2018 but parts used in this video will cover the 2011-2018 3.6L Pentastar engine. This procedure will also work for various years and models of Dodge, Jeep, and Chrysler vehicles that used the 3.6L Pentastar engine includeing the Journey, 300, Charger, Durango, Wrangler, Gladiator, Town & Country van, Challenger, Pacifica, Voyager, Ram 1500, and Ram Promaster van. Spark plugs and intake gaskets were purchased from Amazon and I have provided a link to those parts below.

    Awesome tutorial, and many thanks. I had a bad misfire in cylinder 2, and car would barley run. Shop quoted me like $800 for the job because of the work, but I found this video and just put it on my iPad in the engine bay and followed steps by step and did it myself with no mechanic experience. Took me about 4.5 hours with breaks in between, but was worth saving the money. Replaced all 6 plugs and coils. Seems to be running fine now, had original OEM plugs, and they were in really rough shape for 110k miles. Still had the engine light on after, but wasn’t blinking like before. Drove it to a local shop and still said misfire, but he cleared the codes, and it hasn’t come back on so far.

    I am so grateful that I've finally come across your video. Other videos i came across weren't recorded very well, and they skipped important parts that made me question if i should even try myself. Your video is recorded so perfectly, and your work is so on point that it gives me the confidence to do this job for the very first time. I have a 2018 Dodge Durango SXT, and it's the same engine as the 2018 Jeep in your video. I'm in NYC, and before i came across these videos, the mechanic's was giving me an estimated price of 600 to $700 for this type of work, so thank you and you earned a new subscriber

    Great video and awesome camera work. Dealership quoted about $750 to do the plugs alone a few months back so I decided to do it myself whenever the CE light came on. Me and my dad followed the video today and knocked it out in about 3 hours of working time. Took our time and went slow to make sure we did it correctly but was an enjoyable afternoon activity with my old man. The 10mm bolt on the side mount that was missing in this video was present in mine. Not hard to get to, but almost if not totally impossible to get back on. Not worth the stress and headache to try IMO for anyone else who encounters it. For the 8mm in the back of the intake manifold I used a stubby 1/4” drive and got it easily, no problem. Total costs in parts for the plugs and gaskets (which you should definitely do since you’re already there) was about $100. Great video. Much appreciated.

    This was great. Thanks! Easily the worst spark plug job I've ever done. Vapor cannister purge harness broke from dry rot. If that happens to anyone else, probably will only find it at dealership or Mopar direct. I was able to patch it. Cut off the dry rotted end of the hose and remove. Clean the connector. 0.5" ID heater hose is a good fit with the barbed connector. Used high temp tape lapped over the heater hose joint with the existing hose for good measure. All done, no CEL. Might not bother ordering part ~$50.

    Gotta say previous model design is much less work on the same engine. Even though it's still annoying to remove intake every time you need to change spark plugs, oil temp sensor. Oil pressure sensor and that leaking oil cooler/filter assembly. I have been inside there quite a few times on a single vehicle.

    Great video thank you for posting it! I would highly recommend to disconnect each coil from the wire harness! I had to use some force to get the coil free and when it popped off momentum broke the coil connector on the harness. The black wire also broke off with no easy way to fix it, other than a whole new harness! Was sick to my stomach! Well, put in the new plugs and reassembled everything thinking the worst on start up. Luckily, the engine started fine no missing or check engine light, or other malfunction indicator. Drove about 20 miles and seems to be ok. I'm not sure what the 'black' wire is for (ground maybe?) Had it been either of the other two wires a tow and a very expensive repair bill would have been the most likely outcome.

    Hey brother, you don't want to use that old-style gapping tool for iridium spark plugs. You can damage the tip while measuring the gap. When you slide the tool through it can scrape the iridium. Try using a Lisle 67800 or 67900 tool from any parts store. You can adjust the gap by the back of the electrode arm. The measuring part of the tool is rounded. Less chance of damaging the iridium. Once you use the tool it will make more sense. I didn't get it at first but it avoided me from causing any issues in the future. Good luck and love the amount of time you spent on the small details.

    Hello, the spark plugs you are using are with gap 0.044 according to the specs I saw on the internet for the exact number you are using, how did you make them 0.04. I have the same 2018 Jeep, and when I search for spark plugs by car model, I only get 0.04 gap options. However, I already have the following spark plugs NGK 95710(DILZKR7B11GS), will they fit this engine, can I use them? Their gap spacing is 0.044, according the specs and they don't come up when I search for spark plugs by car model!? And another thing I noticed, in the service manul for JGC WK2 2014-2017, the recomended gap is 0.043, but when I search for spark plug for JGC WK2 2018 3,6 v6, all the spark plugs that come out are with gap 0.04(no matter the brand). Please help how to choose the right spark plug and if the ones I have will work? I am confused!

    Did you make sure everything was plugged in all the way? Does it seem to run fine? Your best bet will be to scan it for codes that we you can pinpoint the problem. If you don’t have a scanner just swing by your local auto parts store they will scan it for free.
